im 33 year old asian woman who is about to get a divorced. I am not that fond of tinder and dating apps? what are the best way to meet men and have a more natural meeting? asking on blind because my social circle is mostlh women and blind has a better mix than my circle Updated: team, i want to clarify that I am not desperate. having kids is my priority right now instead if series of none sense dating (been there, done that) and now I am in a different phase of life. I am an ok looking career person from a solid family. i have built my own carreer and life and happy with myself and how i turn out. I am pretty amaxing in my opinion :) and having a suitable partner will make my and our life better. if location matters, im in seattle washington #dating #relationships
Take some time off of the relationship grind?
I want to have kids and my window is closing
Freeze eggs. Have some fun.
De-prioritize work and focus on group activities you like. Dance classes, cooking, sailing, book clubs. Whatever you like, and be as friendly as possible. Guys will come to you.
You don't know that. There are only a few men in those group activities. Most likely she will keep waiting for something and nothing will happen
Go to places that are likely to have men like the ones you’re looking for. And make sure they’re looking to have a family in the same timeframe. At this point probably the best is one of the more serious dating apps, not the swiping ones.
What are those ?
Check Amy Webb’s TED Talk. Maybe OKCupid off the top of my head. Not my priority now.
BTW, introduce me to your single friends 😎.
Work (especially a new job - you’ll meet so many new people haha), hobbies (gym, sports, volunteering, etc.), friends of friends - networking isn’t just for jobs! My single asian female friends have had better success from particular dating apps, namely Hinge and Coffee Meets Bagel, if you change your mind. IDK if it’s just me, but I’m also an asian female and got approached everywhere all the time before COVID by just being out and about (grocery shopping, coffee shops, just walking around, gym, work, etc.) Sorry about the divorce 😕 best of luck!
That’s true if I live elsewhere. In Seattle it’s a different story :) I never really like those apps as people can be flaky
Try dating apps for long term relationships instead of Tinder
Also, in Seattle you can dress a notch attractive and go walk the dog to the parks. Wear a cute mask!
That actually works ...
🙄
What qualities/skills/TC are you looking for?
Just the typical qualities everyone is looking for : open minded with the ability to take feedback, kind, career focus, etc etc
OP: clarify career focus vs wanting kids. There’s a spectrum but you should probably make clear where you fall and if the “career focus” is just his or also yours.
You should try using non hookup dominated dating apps
What are those ?
Hinge, coffee meets bagle
